    Try Zoom Player for video. The free version won't play DVD's but for the rest it's a blast.

    They didn't "shut down" the lab instruments part. They made a spinoff called Agilent Technologies and that company seems to be doing just fine.

    I agree with you. I'm not sure either if the whole global warming thing is true but I'll rather play it safe then play it cheap. If the global warming is real and whe ignore it, our children will pay dearlly for our mistake so let's stop being so selfish and do our best to reduce the risks. I'll forget about bying a car and keep on taking the (electric) bus and train everyday...

    Interesting indeed. But dumping liquid CO2 into the sea is IMOHO a risky solution. Who really could tell the effets on a long term? I don't thing it would be good news for marine wildlife. The solution is not just dumping our stuff elsewere, it should be thinking on the long term by reducing the waste until cleaner energy sources are safely and (most important) cheaply available. Nothing new but most people seem to forget to thing on the long term.

    Would you be willing to bet your and your kids' comfortable life on something that might be nothing but a politically motivated wild guess.

    Are you willing to bet your kids future on a wild guess and the confort on driving excessively poluting cars? Like cleaner cars would be so much of a problem to our kids confort...
    It's that kind of thinking that gets us nowhere.

    According to the french science magazine "Science et vie" who made a very interesting article about that last month, those methane banks are caused by high pressures and low temperatures. The article also speculates that it could cause a enviromental hazard if the water temperature rises and the methanes rises to the athmosphere thereby contributing to global warming.
